I want to say thank you to Houghton Mifflin Harcourt and NetGalley for letting me read this book in exchange for a review. It was confusing at first because I was hoping for Ismae's pov but it turn got Sybella's instead. This book is more heart warming then the first book because it is more personal and you ended up understanding her more. I loved this book so much it was really good. There wasn't anything I didn't dislike from this book. This is a really good sequel one of the best I have read this year. This book kept you wanting more. The plot didn't get boring and it didn't really drag on. I do admit that there is a cliffhanger like the first book. What I really love is that each story leaves you wanting more from the person. You want to know what happens between Beast and Sybella at the end of the book.

The plot is basically Sybella trying to find herself through out the book. She doesn't really know who she is and she is convince that she doesn't deserve to be loved. She has one goal in mine and that is to kill her father but things don't go as plan and when she helps Beast he takes her with him. It was kind of shocking that he dad is d'Albret. I also don't like that Reverend Mother? I think that is her. She is very fishy. She does end up finding love and its so cute. Again I love how it isn't insta love that takes the whole book for them to admit they like each other. Sometimes the characters get annoying in these situations, but she doesn't and that's really cool.

I really like Sybella as a main character. She is more like the main character from the Throne of Glass. It never cross my mind that she is like her so much until now. You also couldn't help feel bad for her. She may have this cold facde up but really she is kind. I'm glad she found love in Beast. Beast is no Chaol not at all. I feel like I can understand these characters more than the first book.

Overall great book. I loved it and can't wait to get my hands on Mortal Heart. I will be so happy but its going to be sad not to know what happens to Ismae and Sybella. Or maybe we will and we just don't know yet.

My Review: I want to say thanks to Zharmae Publishing Press and Netgalley for letting me read this book in exchange for a honest review. I really liked this book I feel like this isn't just for children, but for anyone really. This book is for basically anyone who is a misfit. Cora goes to this place where anything seems possible and it truly is. She discovers what friendship is and love. I think this book teaches you that it is okay to be you. You don't have to be someone else to have friendship and love. This could book people should read because it is important to understand the theme of this book. I would recommend this book to anyone who loved Fablehaven or anyone who is looking for a nice coming to age book.

﻿Here are just some rules that I have for myself. I try my best to get reviews up as often as I can on my two blogs I have right now. You have to understand that I do have somewhat of a life. I will do my best to get them up with in a month of getting the copy of the book. I will let you see the review before I post it on my blogs. I rarely give out awful reviews to books but I understand if you do not want the review up on the blog. But I will post my reviews on Goodreads no matter what. If you want to do things with me to promote you books I have blogs and a Goodreads group to help you do that. ﻿
